Snake Father, Don’t be too Pushing - C122
Thinking about that reservoir, the weird look that I saw last time flashed past my eyes again. Hu Guyue and I looked at each other and the three of them quietly retreated, telling the person in charge to stay at Hu Jun’s place and not bother about us.
After returning to Hu Jun’s home, Hu Guyue immediately cleaned up everything, poked the Beauty Snake and asked Hu Jun to take care of Tian Tian for us. The few of us drove the car to the reservoir.
That reservoir was one of the entrances to the Yellow Springs. Last time, countless ghosts had drifted over the reservoir, so it was quite strange to think about it now.
Because of Huanhuan scooping up the corpse and closing the farmhouse’s doors, no one was able to fish or barbecue at night. Yang Wei brought us to climb over the wall and the Beauty Snake kept mumbling to us non-stop about how it had followed me for a long time before getting a good night’s sleep.
I didn’t want to care about him, so I directly let Lil ‘White out and let Lil’ White keep an eye on him.
If it wasn’t for the fact that I’m afraid of causing a ruckus and Yang Wei being unable to control himself, I wouldn’t even bother to call this annoying smelly snake over.
It was not yet midnight, and the surroundings were completely silent. Not even the insects could be heard, let alone the ghosts that were floating past the reservoir.
I looked around. The last time we came, there were quite a lot of people. Everyone was having a barbecue and playing around. I was really happy.
The result was — —
I don’t know why, but I feel a little lonely, as if a lot of people aren’t around anymore.
Hu Guyue was still a child after all. After sitting for a while, he couldn’t help but fall asleep on the table.
The Beauty Snake found it boring to sit, saying that it wanted to go into the forest to relax. In the end, it revealed itself as soon as it went out of the pavilion.
Yang Wei and I sat in the pavilion, I looked at the reservoir full of light and scales under the moonlight, and thought that this could be considered a sight, so I extended my finger out towards Yang Wei: “When did you discover it?”
“You know.” Yang Wei looked at his finger that was now completely unharmed. There was no trace of it at all at all at the place where he had bitten into pieces.
If I didn’t know that I didn’t have such a good healing ability, I would probably be happy.
I didn’t know what to say, let alone how to express it.
“I don’t know what’s going on with you doing this, but at least I’m sure of one thing. It’s all thanks to Tian Tian that you can eat.” Yang Wei smiled at me, then looked at the light from the water reservoir. “If Tian Tian had been following you the whole time and controlled the Gu worms in your body, you would have been fine.
“Liu Kunsheng?” I looked at my fingertips and gently poked the marble tabletop.
I can probably guess how I died —
The thought still made me uncomfortable, but I still had to think about it.
Ever since I had experienced this kind of thing, the only time I had felt dizzy and surprised was on the day the snake bone appeared. Liu Kunsheng had bit my neck, sucked in large mouthfuls of blood, making me believe in him.
Following that, Li Xiaoyan and Grey Immortal were locked up by him, and he did not bring up this matter any further, while I —
After that, there was no more blood, and every time I tried to draw a talisman with blood, it would either be from Liu Kunsheng, or the Beauty Snake, or Hu Guyue.
“I’ve never met him, but I’ve heard of him.” Yang Wei flicked the finger that I was knocking on the table with his hand and said softly, “If you aren’t sure why he did this, think about your pain and his, you wouldn’t be in such pain.”
I have never thought about that, but it was a good idea. I smiled at Yang Wei: “Thank you.”
Liu Kunsheng must have suffered even more pain than I did. He personally cut me off, and pieces of flesh came out, but now he had to face me face to face. He risked the lightning in order to fuse with that snake bone.
Gu Zu said that I owed him this time, I do not know what, but I will owe him anyway.
As he was thinking, the shimmering water surface slowly became tranquil. There was not even a speck of light left, only a crescent moon quietly lying on the surface.
Following the faint sound of singing, countless large fish jumped out from the water. Pale white human faces emerged from the water and swam away along the reservoir.
“This is the Yellow Springs?” Yang Wei’s voice carried shock, and he sighed lightly: “People — — are merely a chestnut in a ocean, and the difference between life and death is only a thin line.”
Knowing that he was trying to enlighten me, it seemed like the discussion between the two of us about life and death was a little extreme.
He quietly watched as the number of faces on the water increased, and the faint singing became clearer.
I’m waiting, waiting for Huanhuan and Brother Qi to appear. At least last time Brother Qi was flopping in the water, just that I don’t know how Huanhuan will react this time.
However, after a long while, the singing died down, and the human faces on the surface of the water slowly faded away. Huanhuan and Brother Qi did not appear again.
Yang Wei and I looked at each other, feeling that it was a little strange. Just as we were about to head towards the reservoir, we heard a “hua” sound.
After the fish landed on the shore, it kept flopping around, but its eyes were staring straight at me.
I slowly walked over. The fish flopped a few times at my feet and spat out something that looked like a blister from its mouth. After that, it quietly lay there without moving.
“This is?” Yang Wei anxiously ran over and extended his hand out to grab the bubble bead. Inside it was a pale white face. He looked at the fish on the ground and something crystal clear flowed out from his eyes.
“Let’s go.” I suddenly understood what Huanhuan meant. I stretched out my hand to push the fish into the reservoir and watched as the fish fell into the water and took human form.
Huanhuan smiled at me, then quietly laid down on the surface of the water and drifted away with the other ghosts.
The figure within the bubble in Yang Wei’s hands slapped at the wall as if her life depended on it, and cried out silently, eventually kneeling down on the wall and not moving at all.
As I watched Huanhuan’s ghost drift away with the Yellow Springs water, I glanced at Yang Wei’s blisters and lightly nodded at him. “Let’s go back.”
“En!” A flash of water appeared in Yang Wei’s eyes, but he still responded with a light sound.
The Beauty Snake quickly returned with Little White and mumbled that it was boring. Initially, they thought it would be something big, but they did not expect it to be two people who managed to get it together.
After waking up Hu Guyue, he put away the bubble. He had more ability than me to put away Qi ge’s ghost.
After returning to Hu Jun’s house, I picked up the sleeping Tian Tian and suddenly wanted to return home.
On the way, the Beauty Snake asked me what I was going to do.
Now that even he has seen through Huanhuan’s intentions, how could I allow her son to remain soulless and dumb, and even allow Brother Qi’s ghost to dissipate?
There were actually many ways to use a soul to enter the Yin Body, but doing so would be troublesome.
When I first went to the hospital, I didn’t have any experience. Even Liu Mu, who kept Li Xiaoyan’s soul, was almost messed up by Gong Gong, let alone this time, it was a pure soulless baby. A new identity, was the complete beginning.
If it wasn’t for the hospital’s thermal container being sealed, perhaps even cultivation experience Yin items would have been found and attached to that infant’s body.
Although the Beauty Snake talked a lot, once we reached the town, we got off, saying that we were going to the city to see the night scenery. I know what he meant was that the soulless baby was afraid of being targeted by something powerful, so I thanked him.
It wasn’t good for Yang Wei to come to my house, so he went with Beauty Snake to the city. He could also discuss with the Beauty Snake how to seal Brother Qi’s soul into a baby’s body.
It seemed unreasonable to thank them. Many things were done on the basis of their hearts.
On the way, Hu Guyue asked me: “How did you see through Huanhuan’s intention with a single glance?”
“That infant was born without a soul because her mother was already dead. Although the Yellow Springs had caused her corpse to remain as it was and allowed her fetus to slowly grow, Yellow Spring Yin Division had not arranged for her soul to be born, so she was born empty-handed.” I whispered to Hu Guyue.
At that time, Huanhuan also knew that the fetus in her womb could be an empty, soulless womb, which was why she had always wanted to die together with Brother Qi.
However, she didn’t know where she found or thought of such a method, but it was enough for her to continue doing this sort of thing.
Although Brother Qi and she died together, Huanhuan was protected by the Yellow Springs when Brother Qi died, her ghost did not leave her body. If not for the Yellow Springs, she would have been melted into Gong Gong’s corpse.
Yet the Yellow Spring Yin Division only recorded the death of Brother Qi.
After giving birth to her child, she came up with an even crazier idea?
She went to kill him, and then she pulled his ghost out of the underworld, held it in her mouth, gave it to me, and put it into the body of the soulless fetus.
A child is a continuation of a parent’s life — —
